Guys, any idea?
What time you normaly do water change, morning or noon.
I do WC on afternoon, after they digested the last meal (12 noon). Move them to another tank with thin layer of carpet algae. So that day no more external feeding, they can only graze on the green carpet. That is my fisrtday. So actually they did not missed the morning BW meals on that day.

The next day I found out their appetite is better than before water change. This I believe due to thick greenwater that make them feel not very hungry. Therefore it take them longer time to finish same amount of BW in greenwater compared to clearwater.

Cheers,
